My mum has smoked around me all my life and I guess that that scared me away from both smoking and dating a smoker. Whenever my mum borrows my clothes I can still smell that smoke on the clothing so if I were dating a smoker I would hate it if they ever try to borrowing my clothes and give it back to me smelling like a Smokers Depot. Sure, I have no problem with smokers at all- some of my friends smoke. But, I just don't enjoy it when they smoke around me, in crowded areas or around any non-smokers at all.

Yes, I smoke because it is recommended by my doctor since it provides me with a healthy lifestyle by curing my symptoms of depression, social anxiety, nausea, insomnia, and muscle pains. I highly recommend it instead of the unhealthy options of medication.

I'm almost 25..ugh...that in itself it's hard to wrap my head around. I started smoking at around age 17. I really started smoking at age 19. Why? Because I was naive enough and at the time had little to no self esteem and along with other factors; thought that if I smoke I won't eat as much and therefore lose weight. Well, in about a year I lost 40lbs, was the thinnest I'd ever been..and it had nothing to do with smoking. I had a limited income; so that meant very little, to no food (and cigs and other things I had considered more necessary than nutrition were bought instead). Now, I have money..put back on the 40lbs and am still spending a small fortune on cigarettes. I've done the patch and the e-cig. I know I can quit. I have no doubt, but I think it's all willpower..and that it's something in my life that I'm always in control of. I make the decision to smoke, no one forces me. I would like to quit, and have seriously tried a few times. Why? I'm almost 25, I'm in a serious relationship and having kids is now becoming a reality. I want a healthy body and I want healthy children. I don't want MY choice to negatively effect my future child. So, if you want to smoke, who's to stop you. I know 90 year olds who smoke for 50+ years and are still going strong, and then others who died in their 40's of cancer and never smoked a day in their lives...but if I could re-do it all...I'd never start in the first place..I'd have an extra $200 a month!

I do smoke, I have one whenever I drive. I've been doing so since about 14 and I can honestly say I'm not addicted. I smoke because it gives me something to do while driving, other than playing with my phone.
